VCCA Home Forums TECHNICAL - 1945 AND EARLIER 1929-1932 Line Boring Babbitt Mains Video

Hello All,
1932 Chevrolet engine gets new main babbitt shells bored to fit the crankshaft measurements. Also how the boring machine works. 'Strong's Garage Youtube'. Cheers

there is only 1 shop around here that can do old school line boring, especially on a 3 main like the 194 !! the shop here does a lot of old school engines and stuff, know their stuff. very happy with the work they did on my 1929.

BearsFan, what is the name of the shop that you used?

Thanks for the post from Strongs Garage. Been watching them for a couple of years.
Lots of good info on their channel. Sort of like an automotive Red Green show.
Cheers
Randy.

I used Aerodyne Machine Inc in Portsmouth, VA
